Quick Glance: Police Uncover 'Bones' of Missing Toddler in the Alps
- A significant discovery was made by French investigators who found the 'bones' of a toddler who disappeared last summer in a tiny Alpine village and are now trying to determine the cause of death, a prosecutor reported on Sunday.
- This finding marks the initial significant progress in the case of Emile, a two-and-a-half-year-old who went missing on July 8 of the previous year while under the care of his grandparents.
- Observations reveal that in Le Vernet, an Alpine village in France situated at an altitude of 1,200 meters (4,000 feet), the toddler was last spotted by two neighboring individuals walking alone on a street during the late afternoon.
- Following genetic analyses, they were able to assert 'on Sunday that the bones belong to the child Emile,' he added.
